Build a Python Airline Reservation System

PROJECT


Build a Python Airline Reservation System

In this project, we’ll learn to build a Python-based OOP application using MySQL for flight reservations. This application allows its users to search, book flights, and manage reservations with the distinction between admin and customer roles.

Project Description

Imagine booking a flight effortlessly from your terminal—searching for flights, making reservations, and even managing cancellations, all within a simple command-line interface. In this project, we’ll build a flight reservation system in Python to offer users and admins a seamless way to handle flight bookings. Users can search for flights, make reservations, and process payments, while admins have control over adding and removing flights from the system.

We’ll complete this project using object-oriented programming (OOP) principles. Key components include the CLI interface, a repository layer for database management (MySQL), and a controller layer to handle input processing and user interactions. In the end, this system will offer a streamlined flight booking experience.
